Health & Beauty Tips- Eyeshadow tips to enhance your eyelid shape

Prominent eyelids:If you have prominent eyelids, your goal is to have smaller and thinner-looking eyelids by using eyeshadow on the eyelid and along the crease above the eye. Never use a light shade on the eyelid as this will tend to highlight the eyelid even further. Instead, highlight only the area just below the eyebrow.

 

hooded eyelids: If your eyelid shape is somewhat hooded, you must create an impression that there actually exists an eyelid. For this particular shape, a highlighter on the eyelid itself will give the illusion of a larger eyelid. Only the crease of the eye should be shaded, blending the eyeshadow outwards until it joins with the corner of the eye.

Health and Beauty Q&A
Question - My Doctor wants to perform a Laparoscopy on me as I have been undergoing fertility tests and he has been unable to determine the source of my fertility problems. What exactly happens during this surgery/procedure?

Answer - Laparoscopy is a surgical procedure that involves making one, two, or three very small cuts in the abdomen, Through this cut, a needle will be used to fill your abdomen with carbon dioxide gas. This provides room for your doctor to see the organs and move the laparoscope and specialised surgical instruments.

A laparoscope is a thin, fiber-optic tube, fitted with a light and a camera. Laparoscopy allows your doctor to see the abdominal organs and sometimes make repairs, without making a larger incision that can require a longer recovery time and hospital stay.

Your doctor may suggest laparoscopic surgery to help in diagnosing a cause for infertility. Usually, it’s performed only after other infertility testing has been completed.

If you’re experiencing pelvic pain, a potential symptom of endometriosis or PID, your doctor may suggest laparoscopic surgery to determine the source of the pain and possibly treat it (by removing scar tissue, for example).

Laparoscopic surgery is also performed in the case of ectopic pregnancy.

Health & Beauty Terminology


Iridology:
The study of patterns and structures in the iris (coloured part of the eye) to diagnose disease.

Though the practice is disputed by most in the mainstream medical field, but many holistic health professionals claim that the response of nerves in the iris to bodily phenomena (including disease) can be interpreted through close scrutiny of visible features in the eye.

Some even believe that iridology can prevent the onset of disease by discerning warning signs in the iris.
